Do you mean airbrush Lube? if so take the needle out and put a little on the shaft, just dont get it on the tip or it may have a reaction with the paint.

Whatever you do do not say needle juice three times. You've been warned

Ha....just as I suspected.....nothing happened

Anyway, after juicing said needle, install it back in the airbrush and spray some thinner through it to clean any oils off before spraying paint. I always do this with my airbrush and full size spray guns. I also put a little on a paper towel and, while the airbrush is apart, lube any other moving parts(trigger,etc) with a very thin layer as well. good luck

Never heard of it.

But I do lube the air valve trigger at the base of the finger button. Sometimes things drag on all my airbrushes causing the air to stay on even after my finger has left the trigger.

I call it a "sticky trigger" and usually put a drop of light oil down into the barrel below the finger trigger when this happens.
